If 999,999 People Join This Group My Dad Won’t Kick Me Out
19 year old Tiffany Stewart came home drunk one Saturday night and got caught by her father. Now he is going to be kicked her out of the house for being a problem child.
I tried to explain to my dad that it is normal for people my age to experiment with alcohol (most of my friends drink every weekend) - and that he is over reacting by kicking me out! I rarely drink and when I do it’s with friends I trust and we have a sobar driver! Dad thinks that NO ONE my age has ever consumed alcohol, and that I’m just a problem child. Since he refuses to “support my alternative lifestyle” I’m getting the boot.
Fortunately, Tiffany’s step mom stepped in and struck up a bargain. If the drunken 19 year old can find one million people that drank by age 20 and still turned out OK in life, she gets to stay. Tiffany is person #1. She only need to find 999,999 more. You can help her reach her goal by joining her Facebook group. In the five days the group has been up, the group had amassed over 11,000 members and growing at an amazing rate.
Then again, who wouldn’t want to join a group made up of drunken party girls? Tiffany is the blonde at the center.
How To Make Money Off 1 Million Facerbookers
The winner of this auction will get a link to their website posted in the group information (it will be the official URL of the group and will be the sole link displayed in the group). We will also write whatever you want about the website in the News section, and will encourage all members to visit the website! Your link will remain for the entire life of the group (you will still be getting hits from this group 12 months down the road).
The current bid is $6.50. A test link was posted for 14 hours on September 11th (when the group was at 4300 members) and received 561 clicks. Imagine how many clicks you’ll get once the group gets over a million members?
Real Situation or Evil Marketer at Work?
The Facebook group says Tiffany Stewart is from Charlotte, NC. However, I can’t find her individual Facebook profile. A search turned up a bunch of Tiffany Stewart, but none from Charlotte. The eBay auction was set up by some guy name Ben of Halifax, Nova Scotia (East coast of Canada). It looks like Ben created this group just to sell the sponsorship spot. I am not sure if Tiffany Stewart is real or if she is really being kicked out of the house, or if she even knows Ben. What I do know is the MySpacing of Facebook has begun.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to create a million user Facebook group. How does, “Join This Group or I’ll Kill The Panda!” sound?
*Update - It looks like Facebook reads my blog. They have removed the group. As a result, Ben has removed the eBay auction.

Haha!!! Maybe is JohnChow readers should take advantage of this fad early and effin BANK! HAHA!
or johnchow should make another free ebook about facebook?
(love the word free).
Seems like he got caught.
John i think you should run a facebook group called “The internet investigator”
seems like whoever tries a scam scheme and orders a reviewme on you gets caught like a rabbit in the angle of the room by a very angry pitbull.

Alright guys. Lets turn this motha out.
Ah…. I seriously hope not. Facebook can’t fall. =(
Hahah. I smell a rat, but I joined the group anyways.
Monetization is really starting to run rampant on Facebook. I hope it doesn’t get stupid like MySpace.
lol i joined just because they are all hot
LOL
They really are 
I like the middle girl…
i’m moving to that state.
haha…like that also can
There were several plots of this type done already. If 50,000 join this group, I will blow up my car and videotape it and show it to the world. There were others of this sort done already.
Radio stations are already using Facebook as a marketing tool. “Help Joe Blow win $5,000 from 99.3 FOX!!!” and they all create these groups, try to get their friends to jionm to get the largest group by the deadline. And every single group has to display the 99.3 FOX logo or soemthing like that.
How could you kill a cute little Panda?
Easy… here are a few simple ways to kill even the cutest of pandas:
- Blender.
- Lawn Mower.
- Knife.
- Gun.
- Car.
- Pond + Cemented Feet.
You get the idea, as you can see it’s pretty easy, just get creative!
Does it blend?
Blended Panda. Sounds like an energy drink or something.
That is sick…..but very funny!!!
The best way to kill a panda is with rocks!
You don’t need to kill a panda. They will die of on their own eventually.
I once killed a panda with a goat.. pretty messy.
You rock, John!
/rimshot
hahaha.. that is pretty funny
I wouldn’t put it past…the internet to come up with a fake scheme like this. All you need is a sob story and a hot girl. Look at all the suckers that pass around those chain letters.
I also joined the group too, but I just joined Facebook a day or two ago. Hearing how fast Facebook is growing, I had to join to see what is going on.
I hated it though, it was hard to add friends unlike Myspace. Myspace is a lot better for making money and getting traffic if you ask me.
I’ll join, Just Don’t Shoot The Panda!
LOL
Darin
Me too, where do I send money to?
Everyone visit my blog right now or my children will go hungry and unconceived!
OK OK I’ll do!
I don’t believe this is true.. The girls are too hot!
Having said that if you have a facebook group you lose the group message function at 1000 members… which sucks!
You call’em HOT?
Seems you haven’t seen a real hot girl!
These are some plastic dolls I’d say…
Well come on, their not ugly are they?
And I would definately take them out…
I wonder if those girls gave permission to have themselves exploited by some Canadian.
you’re evil John
if you kill the panda!!!! kill stiffany’s alcoholic hormones instead…
Where did the quote from Ben go?
Decided to keep it private ay? Doesn’t he realise facebookers also use ebay and will suss this guy out.
Getting hold of the admin for a million user account would be worthwhile though, good email marketing through facebook. The link on the page wouldnt do much but if he offered a few emails IF he gets to the million, it would be worth something.
Seeing scams like this makes me sad…. However, the above comments about killing pandas makes me laugh. I’m torn.
MySpace sucks for many reasons, among them of course is the rampant spam… Can’t say I haven’t tried it though. I suppose it can work. I’m not that big on piggybacking other sites though. Make your own monkey I scream!
BTW, John, I very much enjoy the title of your site.
Obama came home for lunch. Pictures on kabatology. We could all fake a story
omg, oh well I bidded
Wow, this story does sound fishy and I would be really suspicious about it. Definitely an “evil” way to get people to join their group.
fake story
but I’ve joined just to see what will happen
John - you big fat liar. Even you wouldn’t be evil enough to kill a panda. Mmm - that reminds me - I’ve been written a post about bloggers who are big fat liars today.
Can you still kill a Panda if the group does get 1 million evil users? This sounds a lot like that cooking a bunny website.
I’m pretty sure the whole thing is a scam, but I’m the auction’s high bidder (for the moment, anyway), because scam or not, it’ll still get a ton of traffic and be a great marketing tool for my site Pic.gs
I really hope it’s legit or else I’ll lose more of my faith of humanity, but a part of me thinks there is evil going on.
You do bring an important point. This is a critical to see if facebook’s API will work.
My view is that it is working. I wouldn’t have found out about this stupid thing unless someone like John Chow brought it up!
Give me my time back!
Don’t know about this, looks a little scammy. We’ll have to wait and see after the auction ends.
I’ll provide the panda if I get a link back
Or maybe my offer is as fake as this Facebook group.
[...] this is because a friend of mine has just emailed me an interesting blog post about just this from John Chow’s blog (a blog I regularly read). He talks about exactly how much potential traffic and revenue a [...]
The group link forwards to my facebook index page instead of the group. Anyone else having a problem?
We’re the corporation behind this
Facebook just deleted the group outright - no warnings!
I have consequently closed the eBay auction, my apologizes to those who bidded!
Looks like Facebook is not the new MySpace when it comes to Internet marketing hehe
Facebook is by far superior to MySpace when it comes to marketing. You’re not evil enough to cover your tracks. Geez…lonelygirl15 was fake and it took people close to a year to figure it out. If you’re going to fake something on the internet, you have to do it well.
Yeah, maybe you should have included a couple of munters in the picture to throw people of the trail.
I don’t know about you, but I’d like to ask each girl in that photo:
“Vood u like to go vo a roll in de hay?”
